Expecting nigh perfect ground tomorrow.

In the King's Stand, I've taken the 22/1 (PP) about Equilateral. On the pace for much of last year's Coronation Cup but didn't quite see out the final furlong, and it may be significant that the same jockey flys over from Oz to renew the acquaintance this year.
Has a little to find with Mabs Cross on their previous run, but he's only just 4yo, and has a reasonable chance of doing so. Drawn far side too (which may be marginally faster) with enough pace around him to ensue no hanging about. Deffo worth an ew punt at the price.
I could see him running well Reet.

And me Reet.
Hazapour might prove a good bet in the first.
Not Never, who I fancied for the big handicap hurdle in February at Newbury, (but didn't actually run), looks really interesting each way later on.

I have to do FUN MAC today in the 500.
I think it might be a case of which side of the stable he got out of this morning but hopefully he is in a good mood.
Has run in the Queen Alexandra stakes the last two years but was probably too highly rated for this off 103 + 107 but back in 2015 he was 2nd off 98 and today runs off 91.
Took 16s 6 places with skybet so fingers crossed.
Romanised's punters will be feeling hard done by there. As might backers of Accidental Agent who was entitled to have finished alongsie the first two on their previous form.
Illegitimi non carborundum
Lesson for next year: the worse they run in the Lockinge the better their chance in the Queen Anne
Feared the last furlong for One Master... Grrr
All comers, all grounds, all beaten!
This perfect mix of poetry and destruction.
Fame at last, Trudi
Perfect tactical ride by Moore on Circus Maximus. My main bet was on King Of Comedy who, for me, was not given a great tactical ride, trying to come from near enough last off an even pace. I'll be interested to see what mark-ups are calculated.

Derby form not looking so bad now.
Have to hand it to AP and the lads; they know something between them !
Good day for me with Arizona winning (stunning horse in the flesh) and I also backed The Grand Visir each way (couple of others placed so finished day up). Shame about the rain as it did impact on me bothering to go down to the pre parade ring.
Interesting bit of gossip circulating there involving Sheikh and Mrs Mo. Apparently her personal training has resulted in her horses being moved to trainers other than her husbands...
tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito
Hoping the rain stops for Flippa The Strippa, and then starts raining again for Sands Of Mali if he runs on Saturday.
Vote Alfie!!!!
Like the look of Mordin in the Royal Hunt Cup at 20/1.

Ladbrokes didn't treat Accidental Agent as a non-runner yesterday so they won't be getting further business off me this week.
Boylesports got ahead of the curve yesterday by getting themselves a name-check on ITV by declaring immediately they would do so but I was wondering how many other bookies followed suit?
